The Royal Mews Providing Official Transport For The British Monarchy

Dominant, confident and quintessentially British

, the city capital of London carries off its mantle of greatness with pride. Housing some of the greatest symbols such as the Westminster, London Eye and Tower Bridge, all of which essentially embody the character of England, this bustling, multi-cultural city encompasses a definite air of grandeur and history.

The Royal Mews is one such piece of history that is unique to Britain. An inherent part of the Lord Chamberlains Office, its duty is to transport the Queen and other members of the Royal Family. These services are carried out by way of motor vehicle as well as horse-drawn carriage. Housed in its present location since 1760 in the time of King George III, the present building was the creation of King George IV who wanted to revamp the palace as well as the stables in a grander style. All state vehicles including the elaborate Gold State Coach seen in coronations and all other manner of carriages used for state weddings, special occasions, visits and the State Opening of Parliament are all maintained and housed at the Royal Mews.

In 1855 Queen Victoria opened a school for children called the Buckingham Palace Royal Mews School. This school that operated for over 20 years was attended by all the children of the helpers and servants of the Royal Mews. Newer residencies and greater modernization continues to take place even today. The newest venture for the Royal Mews is the expansion of an electronic network from the Mews to the Buckingham Palace; it has been an established practice since 1843 that messages and posts to and from St. James Palace and Buckingham Palace were carried out by a daily messenger dispatched from the Royal Mews.

When taking in the sights and sounds of London, it is important that you are provided with safe and comfortable accommodation. The Elysee Hotel is an ideal establishment which caters to the needs of every individual. Established as a budget hotel London one can rest assured that prices are affordable but quality will not be compromised with. A Central London hotel that is situated within easy access to many attractions around London, its the perfect place to stay for individuals, couples and families alike.
